i entered the room

sat by your bed all through the night

i watched your daily fight

i hardly knew

the pain

was almost more than i could bear

and still i hear

your last words to me



heaven is a place nearby

so i won't be so far away

and if you try and look for me

maybe you'll find me someday

heaven is a place nearby

so there's no need to say goodbye

i wanna ask you not to cry

i'll always be by your side



you just faded away

you spread your wings

you had flown

away to something unknown

wish i could bring you back

you're always on my mind

about to tear myself apart

you have your special place in my heart

always



heaven is a place nearby

so i won't be so far away

and if you try and look for me

maybe you'll find me someday

heaven is a place nearby

so there's no need to say goodbye

i wanna ask you not to cry

i'll always be by your side



and even when i go to sleep

i still can hear your voice

and those words i'll never forget



heaven is a place nearby

so i won't be so far away

and if you try and look for me

maybe you'll find me someday

heaven is a place nearby

so there's no need to say goodbye

i wanna ask you not to cry

i'll always be by your side
